EventSentry Light is an accessible and easy-to-use software that can be used to monitor and log events.
EventSentry Light allows you to specify one filter criterion, to limit notifications to selected (or all) events, based on EventID, category and keywords.
You can configure EventSentry to notify you if important events matching your filter criteria occur or consolidate your event logs into one central location such as a central ODBC database.
Through EventSentry, you can be actively notified in several ways when various events take place (email, ASCII file, ODBC, Unix syslog, SNMP, network (net send), process, sound, desktop).
EventSentry will also monitor performance, system services, disk space, processes and the addition / removal of applications and autorun registry entries.
